Bowe Machine Company is a family owned business founded in 1956 by the late William J. Bowe. Starting as a job and contract machine shop, we maintain complete capacity in all types of C.N.C. and manual machining, with the largest Blanchard and surface grinders in eastern Iowa.

In 1986, we began manufacturing and marketing shear blades under our product name BOWE KNIVES. Also, we manufacture and repair complete rotor assemblies for waste and composting equipment, and large scrap shredders.

With our large capacity equipment, we provide repair machining and welding to an array of customers in the foundry, quarry, fabricating and press shop industries.

Our Quad-Cities location allows us to work closely with other suppliers to provide you with the finished product, including heat treating, surface coatings and various types of plating.
